203542. (2025•铁一中学•高二上期末)     Released on Aug 30,a three-episode web series titled Escape From the British Museum has gone viral online for its touching and innovative narrative (叙事).The series follows the journey home of a Chinese jade teapot that has come to life as a girl.She runs away from the British Museum and comes across a Chinese journalist who helps the artifact return to China.The series,created by two Chinese vloggers,aims to raise broader awareness of Chinese artifacts that were stolen or looted (掠夺) from China and are displayed or stored in the British Museum.
    The video series echoes the Chinese people's call for the British Museum to return these Chinese artifacts.However,some UK media outlets said that the video series promotes nationalism (民族主义).In fact,every country whose artifacts are displayed or stored in the British Museum wants them back.These countries,such as Greece,Nigeria and Sudan,have already issued their demands for the return of artifacts.It's fair enough to say these demands are shared.They can correct centuries-old wrongs by having the UK return artifacts to their rightful homes.
    An opinion in the UK newspaper The Telegraph said that if the British Museum gives back its collection of artifacts,then nationalism will win over humanity's common heritage.It also said that the artifacts were "lawfully acquired (合法取得) " by the UK.By "lawfully acquired",does the writer mean the artifacts were acquired with the "help" of machine guns and warships?Or does he mean that the cultural artifacts of African,Asian and American countrieould be kept in the hands of looters,rather than in their land of origin?

(1)What is the video series Escape from the British Museum mainly about?        
A.Cultural artifacts looted by the UK.

3)目的意图题。根据第二段中In factevery country whose artifacts are displayed or stored in the British Museum wants them back.These countriessuch as GreeceNigeria and Sudanhave already issued their demands for the return of artifacts.It's fair enough to say these demands are shared.They can correct centuriesold wrongs by having the UK return artifacts to their rightful homes. (事实上,每个在大英博物馆展示或存放文物的国家都希望将它们归还。希腊、尼日利亚、苏丹等国家已经提出归还文物的要求。可以公平地说,这些要求是共同的。他们可以通过让英国将文物归还给他们合法的家园来纠正几个世纪以来的错误。)可推知,作者提到希腊、尼日利亚和苏丹等国家的目的是强调中国的诉求是许多国家的共同诉求。故选B
4)观点态度题。根据最后一段中By "lawfully acquired"does the writer mean the artifacts were acquired with the "help" of machine guns and warshipsOr does he mean that the cultural artifacts of AfricanAsian and American countries should be kept in the hands of lootersrather than in their land of origin (作者所说的"合法获得"是指这些文物是在机枪和军舰的"帮助"下获得的吗?或者他的意思是,非洲、亚洲和美洲国家的文物应该留在掠夺者手中,而不是留在它们的原产地?)可知,作者认为这些文物是在机枪和军舰的"帮助"下获得的,是被掠夺过来的,由此可推知,作者认为《电讯报》的观点是完全不能接受的。故选A

203861. (2024•长安区•高一上期末)     Do you speak a dialect(方言)in daily life?While many Chinese people speak Mandarin,some local dialects are in danger of disappearing.To save them,the Chinese government started the Chinese Language Resources Protection Project a few years ago.
    This project looks at how people talk in 1,712 places.Their languages include 103 dialects that are almost gone.It has helped China to build the largest language resource library in the world.There's an online library where people can learn dialects from over 5.6 million audio clips( 音 频 )and over 5 million videos.
    Why is it important to protect the dialect culture?According to British linguist Harold Palmer,dialects are a key to store local cultures.Language faithfully shows the history,the beliefs and the biases(偏见)of an area,he said.
    Scholar Zhang Hongming talked about his concerns of the disappearing of dialeets, "For about over 10 years,in the Wu dialect areas such as Shanghai and Suzhou,children aged 6 to 15 can understand but hardly speak the dialect.Meanwhile,young people above 15 years old sometimes speak it,but not very well.If this keeps happening,the dialect might disappear," he said.
    So how did China make this big library? "A big national effort has been put into the project to make it happen," said Cao Zhiyun,chief expert on the project.Over five years,more than 350 universities and research groups joined in,along with over 4,500 experts and more than 6,000 dialect speakers.
    The project is now entering into its second part.This includes creating digital tools like apps and mobile dictionaries to help people lean dialects.

205962. (2016•西安一中•高一下期末) Easter(复活节) is still a great day for worship,randy in baskets and running around the yard finding eggs,but every year it gets quite a bit worse for bunnies.
And no,not because the kids like to pull their ears.The culprit is climate change,and some researchers found that rising temperatures are having harmful effects on at least five species of rabbit in the US.
Take the Lower Keys March rabbit,for instance.An endangered species that lives in the Lower Florida Keys,this species of cottontail is a great swimmer-it lives on the islands!-but it is already severely affected by development and now by rising levels.According to the Center for Biological Diversity,an ocean level rise of only 0.6 meters will send these guys jumping to higher ground and a 0.9-meter rise would wipe out their habitat (栖息地) completely.
The snowshoe hare,on the other hand,has a color issue.Most of these rabbits change their fur color from white in the wintertime to brown in the summer,each designed to give them better cover from predators(捕食者).As the number of days with snow decreases all across the country,however,more and more bunnies are being left in white fur during brown dirt days of both fall and spring,making them an easier mark for predators.Researchers know that the color change is controlled by the number of hours of sunlight,but whether the rabbit will be able to adapt quick enough to survive is a big question.The National Wildlife Federation has reported that hunters have noticed their numbers are already markedly down.
American pikas or rock rabbits,a relative of rabbits and hares,might be the firs' of these species to go extinct due to climate change.About 7-8 inches long,pikas live high in the cool,damp mountains west of the Rocky Mountains.As global temperatures rise,they would naturally migrate (迁徙) to higher ground-but they already occupy the mountaintops.They can't go any higher.The National Wildlife Federation reports that they might not be able to stand the new temperatures as their habitat beats up.
The volcano rabbit has the same problem.These rabbits live on the slopes of volcanoes in Mexico,and recent studies have shown that the lower range of their habitat has already shifted upward about 700 meters,but there are not suitable plants for them to move higher,so they are stuck in the middle.Scientists are concerned about their populations.
Native to the US,pygmy rabbits weigh less than 1 pound and live in the American West.They are believed to be the smallest rabbits in the world.Their habitats have been destroyed by development.Several populations,such as the Columbia Basin pygmy,almost went extinct and were saved by zoo breeding programs.Pygmy rabbits also rely on winter cover by digging tunnels through the snow to escape predators,but lesser snowfall is leaving them exposed.
All of this gives new meaning to dressing up in a giant bunny costume this Easter.
(1)The writer mentions Easter at the beginning of the passage in order to        
A.show the importance of Easter Day
B.remind people of Easter traditions
C.introduce the issue about bunnies
D.discuss the relationship between Easter and bunnies
(2)The word"culprit"( Paragraph 2)is closest in meaning to        
A.producer
B.judge
C.victim
D.criminal
(3)Which best describes the writer's tone in the postage?        
A.Concerned.
B.Approving.
C.Enthusiastic.

206054. (2016•七十中•高一下期末) It is believed by experts that a weather pattern called El Nino caused the drought in Australia.EL Nino,referring to the Christ son in Spanish,was first used by people in Peru to show the abnormal weather conditions along the eastern Pacific coast around Christmas.EL Nino causes different weather in different parts of the world.It causes a lot of rain and floods in some places.It causes droughts in other places.Droughts can badly affect people and the land.El Nino lasts about a year.
In normal weather conditions,warm winds from South America blow from east to west across the Pacific Ocean.The winds bring early storms to Australia.These storms bring rain to Australia.
During an El Nino weather pattern the winds change direction.They blow from west to east across the Pacific Ocean.The storms no longer move across Australia.So Australia gets very little rain during El Nino.
The drought began in January,1982.El Nino often occurs at this time of year.But that year,El Nino was stronger than usual.There was very little rainfall in eastern Australia.There was also very little water in the rivers.The drought was at its worst in February,1983.At that time,the weather was very hot.The forests and fields were very dry.Cotton growers couldn't plant their cotton.Sheep farmers had no grass for their animals to eat.So many of them died.Because the forests were dry,forest fires started quickly.Some of the fires burned for a month.Many forests were destroyed.Over 2,000 people lost their houses in the fires and 75 people died.
The Australian drought of 1982-1983 affected thousands of people and animals.The drought cost the country over 3,000,000,000.It was a reminder to Australians of how the weather could change their lives.
(1)From the passage we know El Nino is        
A.a powerful storm

C.a cute boy
D.a weather pattern
(2)The underlined word"occurs"in the passage means"        "in Chinese.

206028. (2016•长安区一中•高二下期末) "You're going to the United States to live?How wonderful!You're really lucky!"Does this sound familiar?Perhaps your family and friends said similar things to you when you left home.But does it seem true all the time?Is your life in this new country always wonderful and exciting?A great many factow that it's not easy for newcomers to adjust to life in a new culture.They have to experience culture shock.
What causes culture shock?Maybe the weather is unpleasant.Perhaps the customs are different.Perhaps the public service systems such as the telephone,post office,or transportation are difficult to figure out and you make mistakes.The simplest things seem difficult.The language may be difficult.The food may seem strange to you.If you don't look similar to the natives,you may feel strange.You may feel as if everyone is watching you.In fact,you are always watching yourself

Culture shock produces a feeling of disorientation (晕头转向),which may be homesickness,imagined illness,or even paranoia (妄想症).When people feel the disorientation of culture shock,they sometimes feel like staying inside all the time.They want to protect themselves from the unfamiliar environment.They want to create an escape within their room to give themselves a sense of security.This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term,but it does nothing to familiarize the person more with the culture.Familiarity and experience are the long term ways to settle the problem of culture shock.

206027. (2016•长安区一中•高二下期末) On May 3,2002,archaeologists in England found a grave of a man dating back to around 2300 BC.Buried with him were the tools of a hunter or warrior.There was a bone pin that may have been from a piece of clothing such as a leather coat.He carried a copper knife on his breast.The most amazing find was two gold earrings.That would have made him a man of distinction.Only a few centimeters from his head were two pots made of clay,tools and materials to make arrows,a bow and a dozen arrows for hunting and a second,smaller copper knife.Next to them lay a cushion stone,upon which the man could work metal.
His grave is the richest of any found from that period,because this man was buried with two gold earrings which are the oldest gold ever found in Britain (dated to 2470 BC).Besides,he was buried three miles from Stonehenge.Archaeologists tend to believe he was a member of a powerful class who might have organized the construction of Stonehenge.

205999. (2016•长安区一中•高一下期末) In America the first newspaper appeared in Boston in 1690.Published without permission,it was immediately banned,and all copies were destroyed.Indeed,it remained forgotten until 1845 when the only surviving example was discovered in the British Library.
The first successful newspaper was the Boston News-Letter,begun by John Campbell in 1704.Although it was heavily supported by the government,the experiment was nearly a failure,with the limited number of published newspapers.Two more papers were published in the 1720s,in Philadelphia and New York.Just before the Revolutionary War,some two dozen papers were published in all the colonies(殖民地),although Massachusetts,New York,and Pennsylvania would remain the centers of American printing for many years.Articles in colonial papers were a major force that affected public opinion in America to be fully independent.
When the war ended in 1783 there were forty-three newspapers in print.The newspapers played an active role in the affairs of the new nation.Many more newspapers were started,representing all kinds of political opinions,and America's newspapers began to take on a central role in national affairs.Growth continued in every state.By 1814 there were 346 newspapers.
The price of a year's worth of newspapers was usually over a full week's pay for a worker.It had to be paid in full and in advance.This cheap,interesting reading material helped to make almost everyone in America develop the habit of reading,which is now taken for granted.
(1)The main force to affect public opinion in America for America's independence was        
A.different kinds of newspapers
B.the appearance of more papers
C.the articles in colonial newspapers

A.Because it was the first newspaper supported by the government.
B.Because it was immediately accepted by the American people.
C.Because it published a large number of newspapers.
D.Because never before was one newspaper published.
(3)Why was the first newspaper in America stopped from being published?        
A.Because no one wanted to buy newspapers at that time.
B.Because only the British Library had the right to publish it.
C.Because it was published without the permission of the government.
D.Because no one in America could read newspapers at that time.
(4)What was the situation for newspapers in America after the war ended in 1783?        
A.They were banned just as before.
B.It was hard to say how they developed.
C.It played a more important part in daily life.

220551. (2016•七十中•高二下二月) The basic flag of the United States is one of the world's oldest national flags.Only the basic flags of Austria,Denmark,Great Britain,the Netherlands,Sweden,and Switzerland are older.
During the discovery and settlement of what is now the United States,the flags of various European nations were flown over the land,as symbols of possession.Later,in the Colonial and Revolutionary War periods,flags representing famous persons,places,and events were flown in the American Colonies.
The first official flag of the United States was created by Congress on June 14,1777.It consisted of 13 alternate red and white stripes and 13 white stars in a field of blue,representing the 13 colonies that had declared their independence in 1776.Congress adopted a new flag of 15 stars and 15 stripes in 1795 to give representation to the two new states admitted into the Union,Vermont and Kentucky.
By 1817,there were 20 states in the Union,and it became apparent that adding one stripe for each new state would destroy the shape of the flag.As a result,Congress in 1818 restored the original design of 13 stripes and provided that each state was to be represented by one star.In 1912 President William H.Taft made the first official provision for the arrangement of the stars.He ordered that there be six even rows of eight stars each.Previously the arrangement of the stars had been left to the flag-maker's fancy.
The evolution of the Stars and Stripes reflects the growth of the United States.After the admission of Hawaii into the Union in 1959,the flag was officially changed for the 26th times since its creation.There are many government flags flown in the United States in addition to the national flag.Among them are the president's and vice-president's flags and those of the federal departments and some federal agencies.Each state in the Union has an official flag.The United States Navy uses special flags for signaling.
(1)The basic flag of the United States is        
A.the oldest national flag in the world.
B.one of the world's oldest flags.
C.the most beautiful flag in the West.
D.as old as the basic flags of some European nations.
(2)The first official flag of the United States was adopted        
A.before the Independence War
B.right after the Independence War
C.in the following year of the Independence War.
D.when independence was declared in 1776
(3)The 13 red and white stripes and 13 white stars represent        
A.13 independent states
B.the colonies that declared independence in 1776
C.the U.S.Congress
D.13 famous figures in the American colonies
(4)Why was the original design of 13 stripes restored in 1818?        
A.The American people suggested it.
B.Congress insisted 13 is the best number.

205920. (2016•西北大附中•高一下期末) Why is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys? The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences.To the Egyptians,green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring,while for Muslims,it means heaven.Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures.In China,children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year.For many nations,blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs.Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils.
   People's choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies' reactions toward them.Green is said to be the most restful color.It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically.People who work in green environment have been found to have fewer stomach aches.

   Blue is another calming color.Unlike red,blue can cause people to lose appetite.So if you want to eat less,some suggest that eating from blue plates can help.

205842. (2017•西安中学•高二上期末) WASHINGTON:NASA has announced evidence that Jupiter's largest moon,Ganymede,has a saltwater ocean under its icy surface.The ocean seems to have more water than all the water on Earth's surface,according to new Hubble observation.
   New Hubble observations of Ganymede's magnetic field strongly suggest that the moon,which is the largest in our whole solar system,is home to a subsurface ocean.
   Scientists estimate the ocean is 95 kilometres thick,which is about 10 times deeper than Earth's oceans.But unlike our salty waters,Ganymede's ocean is buried under 150 kilometres of ice.
   While scientists have speculated (推测) since 1970s about the presence of an ocean on Ganymede - the largest moon in our solar system - until now the only observational evidence came from a brief flyby by the Galileo spacecraft,which didn't observe the moon long enough to confirm a liquid ocean.
   This discovery marks an important milestone,highlighting what only Hubble can accomplish.In its 25 years in orbit,Hubble has made many scientific discoveries in our own solar system.A deep ocean under the icy surface of Ganymede opens up further exciting possibilities for life beyond Earth.
    Scientists have already confirmed the existence of an ocean on Europa,another moon orbiting Jupiter,and NASA has announced plans to send an unmanned mission there searching for the life that might come with liquid water.
   Hubble is a telescope that orbits Earth,but because of its impressive gravitational analyses it can be used to study the inside of far distant planets.Using these same principles,scientists could theoretically detect oceans on distant planets as well.

(1)What can we learn about the Ganymede from the passage?        
A.It is a planet with the largest moon in our whole solar system.
B.Its ocean adds to people's excitement about life beyond Earth.
C.It will be used by NASA as a base for the Hubble telescope.
D.Its liquid ocean was first proved by the Galileo spacecraft.
(2)Which of the following best describes the writer's attitude towards Hubble?        
A.Cautious
B.Doubtful
C.Negative
D.Favourable
(3)What does the underlined part in Paragraph 6 mean?        
A.An underground ocean has been found in Europa.
B.The presence of an underground ocean in Europa is not possible.
C.It is now certain that there is an ocean on Europa.
D.No evidence haown the existence of an ocean on Europa.
(4)What type of writing does this passage belong to?        
A.A term essay
B.A news report
C.An experiment report
D.An exploration review

205841. (2017•西安中学•高二上期末) Ireland has had a very difficult history.The problems started in the 16th century when English rulers tried to conquer (征服) Ireland.For hundreds of years,the Irish people fought against the English.Finally,in 1921,the British government was forced to give independence to the south of Ireland.The result is that today there are two"Irelands".Northern Ireland,in the north,is part of the United Kingdom.The Republic of Ireland,in the south,is an independent country.
   In the 1840s the main crop,potatoes,was affected by disease and about 750,000 people died of hunger.This,and a shortage (短缺) of work,forced many people to leave Ireland and live in the USA,the UK,Australia and Canada.As a result of these problems,the population fell from 8.2 million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851.
   For many years,the majority of Irish people earned their living as farmers.Today,many people still work on the land but more and more people are moving to the cities to work in factories and offices.Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside,where things move at a quieter and slower pace.
   The Irish are famous for being warm-hearted and friendly.Oscar Wilde,a famous Irish writer,once said that the Irish were"the greatest talkers since the Greeks".Since independence,Ireland has revived (复兴) its own culture of music,language,literature and singing.Different areas have different styles of old Irish songs which are sung without instruments.Other kinds of Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin,whistles,etc.

205697. (2018•西安中学•高二下期末) A small insect is getting a lot of attention in the United States.The rusty patched bumblebee (大黄蜂) is the first of its species to be declared endangered in the lower 48 states-meaning every state except Alaska and Hawaii.The rusty patched bumblebee is named for a rust-colored line on its back.
   The U.S.Fish and Wildlife Service announced this month it was adding the bee to its endangered species list.The insects are "on the brink of extinction, " according to the service.It said the bees were once found in 28 states.But there now are only small populations remaining in 13 states.The government agency will make a plan to help the dying bees recover.The agency said that such a plan might help other insects,like butterflies.
   U.S.officials think land owners can take small steps to help the rusty patched bumblebee.They say land owners can be friendlier towards bees by using native plants in their gardens.The insects directly fertilize many kinds of fruit and vegetable crops.And they fertilize grain crops used to feed cattle and milk cows.It costs billions of dollars to duplicate the job the bees do for free.Land owners are also being urged to cut back on their use of pesticide products.The officials also suggest that gardeners leave their plants alone at the end of the summer instead of cutting them.That way,the bees will have a place to live over the winter.

205508. (2020•莲湖区•高二下期末) Denmark is only about half the size of South Carolina,but it produces more of its electricity from wind than any other country in the world.Denmark now gets 47% of its electricity from wind,and there will be more to come,thanks to a combination of history and policy.
   Paul la Cour was a scientist and inventor who experimented with early wind power machines at the start of the 20th century.So it's not surprising that Denmark invested in building wind power the earliest.Since the 1970s,Denmark has been investing in wind energy all over the country.In the 1980s,due to a strong movement opposing nuclear power plants,Denmark increased its production of clean energy even before many other countries considered it.
   Even back in 2002,Denmark took climate change warnings seriously.They drew up policies,aiming to cut fossil-fuel emissions by 20%,which they did via renewable energy investment.Some of the world's largest companies in the field-including Vestas,which builds turbines(涡轮机),and Orsted,which specializes in offshore wind projects-are Danish,so the country has an impact beyond its borders.
   The huge impact of Denmark's wind industry is important.But Denmark is a small country,so while almost 50% of its electricity from wind is admirable,it's also minor in terms of entire global impact.
   While Denmark gets half its electricity from 5,758 megawatts (MW) of capacity,Spain's 23,000 MW covers just 18 percent of its electricity supply as it's a much bigger country.China is the leader in wind energy at 221,000 MW,and the U.S.is the second in the world at about 96,000 MW.
   At the end of 2019,lawmakers in Denmark set a new goal:increasing the share of electricity coming from renewable power to 100%.

(1)What can we know about Denmark?       
A.It is a leader in solar energy.
B.It is a pioneer in clean energy.
C.It is a victim of climate change.
D.It is an advocate of nuclear energy.
(2)What is Denmark government's attitude towards fossil-fuel energy projects?       
A.Indifferent.
B.Ambiguous.
C.Positive.
D.Opposed.
(3)Which country produces the most wind energy in the world?       
A.Denmark.
B.China.
C.The U.S.
D.Spain.
(4)What is the best title for the text?       
A.Almost Half of Denmark's Electricity Comes from Wind Power
B.Denmark's Government Pushes ahead with Fossil-fuel Projects
